The causal condition has three meanings: first, seed leading to seed; second, seed generating manifest activity; third, manifest activity perfuming seed. The basis as causal condition takes only the single meaning of seed generating manifest activity; this is the true basis as causal condition. If a seed generates a seed, it is only called a causal condition and cannot be called a basis, because cause and effect are in different moments; the preceding moment lacks real entity and is not a basis, which must necessarily be simultaneous. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 72.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016.72.6) - [Next: 72.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016.72.8) - [Up: 72](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016.72) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016~en-mt.72.7) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016.72.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2016.72.7) · Pramāṇa
